Human rights standards are increasingly considered as a model for best practice for the criminal justice system in both developed and developing nations. The criminal justice system plays a primary role in the protection of human rights and this subject will ensure students' familiarity with human rights concepts, standards, debates, and the applicability of human rights to the criminal justice system. Students will also look at vulnerability and discrimination within a rights based framework and will examine how a rights based approach can inform ethical professional practice.
